The general merchandise market we ri? fairly active to-day, and the month of May commences with a favorable outlook for an active and remunerative business in all departments of trade. The grocery markets are considerably exeited, and we note an advance in coffees, sugars and rice. The New York Bulletin of the 2Mh ult. reports the market as follows: Raw su?ar has continued to advance, on a brisk demand for both the raw and refined product and with favorable advices from Cuba Considerable sales or sugar to arrive have b:.'eu made, and there has been quite a good business on the spot during most of the week, though for a day or two past there has been less activity. The closing quotations of the week were 9i&-Ze for fur to good refining; 4ci ror prim.-, and fc-HlO'e for centrifugal. The statistical position continues in holders' favor, and exerts an important influence on the market Just now. The combined stock of New York, Boston, Phii idelphia and Baltimore on til? 10th Inst, was 41,62? ton.-, or a deficiency CO ' pared" with the ame date last year of 33,02 tons, or equal to 43 per cent. The following will show the statiHticai Hition here yesterday morning according to the run ning count, with some comjarisona: Melado. 1,441 343 1,21 58 3,41 1AM 312 5,51)9 Hhd. Boxi.

Steadily advancing pric. a In England have stimulated the export trade here considerably. PJo coffee has been in fair demand and firm at onchanged quotation. li'2rc gold for ordinary to prime iu voices. The advices from Rio have been favorable to holders, bat the Amstedara sale Wednesday went off below the valuations and the London market has declined In within a week. The sustaining prop of the market is the scarcitvof the better grades, which are wanted. The stock here is much 1;ks than that he'.. I at the same time last year, being at the none of the week .79,710 bags against 120,192 bags at the same time last year; and most of the present supply is of common quality. The Jobbing trade Is improving some w liar, and this naturally strengthens the Invoice market, to which end, it may be added, the present small shipments to the United States from Rio also contribute. Mild eoflVe has been firm, with a fair demand, mainly for the higher g ratios, to supply tho place of the better grades of Rio. The stock of such grades of mild dwindled down to a rather moderate quantity toward the close f the week, but on Saturday there were im portant receipts of Laguayra; that descrip tion, as well as Maracalbo, has still been quo tod at 18'4'J0c: Java ZVctU-ic, and 8t. Unmln go at lö(f)lt;4c gold. Laguayra close active. In dry goods prloes are steady with a good demand, and stocks are all that buyer could desire. The New York Daily Bulletin of Mon day says: Cotton Ooods. There has been no material ehaage In the general condition of the cotton goods market, and prices are nominally un changed beyond a few slight revisions, which appear in onr price current. The demand by Jobben is ot a strictly hand-to-moath character, and their sales are of a like nature. Brown sheetings are moving in small lots to a fair amount, but the demand for bleached shirt ing has not been stimulated to the expected extent by tin late reductions in price, and wide sheetings continue sluggish. New styles of basket and faney cheviots are receiving more attention from Intending buyers, Mid ved docks are in fair reo nest, but other makes fst colored cottons are devoid of animation, Rilasias are rather more active, but rolled iacoiuts and Biased cambrics are moving slowlv Prints There has been a very small demand lor fancy prints by persoual selection, bat a good many orders were received by mail and l levrrsDh from iobbers lu the Interior, which enables agents to effect a moderate distribu tion of leading makes.

inanr exmlnitMTk'n wnicn will be ontTi. Production is being rapidly curtailed by the printers. The Hamilton print works temporarily Mispei-ded operations to-day, and will pioliahly remain clc aed through My, and the t ri"utaf print M-orks have .stopjanl running for the present. The produce markets are well supplied with checks, seer-sucker stripes, Japanai.ne stripes lilieral receipts of poultry, butter and eggs. Prices I have undergone no special change. T!v. New York egg and poultry markets of Muhday are reported as follows: K2s. Receipts to-dar 4.512 bbls. The general consumptive demand has not greatly im proved, neither have the snipping orucrs come to hand in encouraging numbers uuung tne past few davs. but the determination among receivers to hold stock, and the speculative inouirr before referred to afforded basis foi a considerable recovery of tone. Rome of the trade express doubts in regard to the strength of the improvement. To-day's market was quite unsettled in tone, some operators claim ing 13c to be an tnatcoum oe reanzea, ana others stating that sales had reached 14c. We adjust quotations to recognize an intermediate figure, but at the close 11c was the best bid.

The 'grain market was unsettled today. olng to the reaction In the Chicago market, and corn and wheat declined. As a conse quence prices are nominal, ana it wouia oe difficult to quote the market accurately. The Bulletin of the 25th, in its review of the New York market, says: Advices bv cable as to the political situation in Kurope, which were viewed throughout as pointing unmistakably to war, tended to stimulate operations, in nart bv the furtder devel opment ot the speculative temper and served also to strengthen values, t oreign reports as to the course of trade and the range of values in this connection were decidedly favorable. Very moderate movements of bp up ies toward the seaboard and rapidly diminishing stocks here have been likewise of weight in enabling holders to place important quantities or botn flour and wheat at materially advanced figures. Corn, through Jree offerings, was excep tionally depressed and irregular toward the close on a reduced volume of transactions for both prompt and forward delivery. The amount or grain in store ere, accoraing to the latest official report, is now down to 3.227 .H bu. as against 3.022,ol4 bu a week earlier. 7.018.4K1 bu 8 weeka since, 3,719,881 bu this time last year, ana 3,ti-4.w du at tne corresponding time of 1875. The aggregate of wheat now in store nere is itsz,iuo ou, against 1-M7.278 bu on the preceding weekly return, 2,lKJ0,522 bu 8 weeks since, and 2,430,10 bu at this time last year. The" amount of corn in store here is now reduced to 650,121 bu. The agre'ate of barley shows a falling off of 4.,b00 bu; that of rye, of about 41,000 bujthat of oats an increase of about 10,000 bu, and that of malt of about 10,000 bu. In the latest estimates or the risihie supplies of grain, an increase was noted of about 20,000 bushels in the total ot wneat, with a decrease of about 20,000 bushels in that of corn, and of atout 3,500 bushels in tnat of rye, witn a rail ing oil of about v,.jou ousneis iu tnat oi oarley, and about 233,000 bushels in the total of oats. High prices have thus far failed to biingout any very important quantities of wheat, beyond what had been previously in cluded in the estimates of the slock in sight, aud this circumstance has been urged by ope rators for a rise as an indication that the reserves yet in the hands of producers are very light. As illustrative of the recent very marked ri e In flour and grain values in thts market. the following comparative tables of the quota tions current here attneuates specineu, prepared by us, is of special interest.

The New York Dally Bulletin of the 25th , In reviewing the market, says: That the condition of affairs in Europe should prove beneficial to this country's food supply seems but a reasonable expectation; f.f urltH tliA OTMntlnn rt fri a np lion stvlaa jvv n hu luv. .vvjwv. v. v nu OIJ IVO. dealers in the hog product have not as yet been called upon to distribute in mnch larger quantity tnan oeiore tue nuation aoroaa as sumed its present Deiiigereni attitude, Shipments have been pretty full, yet In a large number of cases these were simply in fulfillment of old contracts, and it Is a noticeable fact that in the face of an apparent good base searoely any more than ordinary excitement has developed on the general market. It Is possible, however, , thai legitimate additions to value may have been anticipated on the advances made earlier in the month, and par ticularly last week, wnicn, coupicu witn tne crippled condition of regular "operators" in options and the continned absence of outside aid, tends to prevent the stretching of advan tages oeyona a reasonable tension, xnere is certainly a very cautious spirit shown here, with a tendency to follow in the wake of the western markets, rather than strike out on an independent policy. Lard has not been In quite so satisfactory condition as last week. The range of value has been higher but the movement less free and rapid, and especially so on actual stock. Indeed, a great many of the refiners for several days refused to bid at all on western and the transactions were confined to small and Irregular parcels, as taken to meet some temporary and urgent want. . About 10o was the average ask'ng rat, and some of the holders were pretty firm, especially after they bad succeeded In obtaining a fraction beyond i the above figure, but their flrmne appeased to have the effect to repulse rather than at-

tract demand, and with the opening of the present week (Monday) the tone sottened a trifle.
